Hello. I’m trying to boot a physical installation of windows 10 in a UEFI enabled QEMU environment with KVM. The windows 10 installation is on my disk /dev/sda. This is the partition table :
root@ziomario-Z390-AORUS-PRO:/var/log/libvirt/qemu# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 465,78 GiB, 500107862016 bytes, 976773168 sectors
Disk model: CT500MX500SSD4
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: A1F38312-1D0A-4947-A0C6-C7A7A4EB7266
Dispositivo Start Fine Settori Size Tipo
/dev/sda1 34 262177 262144 128M Microsoft reserved
/dev/sda2 264192 1286143 1021952 499M Windows recovery environment
/dev/sda3 1286144 1488895 202752 99M EFI System
/dev/sda4 1488896 975591423 974102528 464,5G Microsoft basic data
/dev/sda5 975591424 976773119 1181696 577M Windows recovery environment
So,I try to boot Windows 10 with this qemu command line :
qemu-system-x86_64 -bios /usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd -enable-kvm -cpu host -smp 4 -m 8192 -net nic,model=virtio -net user -drive file=/dev/sda,format=raw,if=virtio -vga qxl -usbdevice tablet -rtc base=utc
this is what happens:
it does not boot even /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2 or /dev/sda3 or /dev/sda4. what’s the trick here ?
